I did not have a memorable experience I was left embarrassed and confused wondering if this was a scam. I booked online in advance got the instructions where to wait. Email said 15 minutes before the schedule time of 8:45 . I was there early waited when 9am came I went downstairs in the line to see if the barcode confirmation I recieved could get me in. No as the only African American in the line I felt embarrassed as I was told that what I had was a confirmation and not the actual ticket to get in. I went back upstairs used the phone for a guy who was trying to sell me a tour to call the number in the email. Long story short the guide eventually showed up just when a manager from summit 1 was going to allow me to do the door as she saw my distress then some one called back from the number in Dublin to say my guide was looking for me NoNoNo I was there and he was not there until 9:07am . I was crushed I was hyped and looking forward to the tour the tour guide smelled and appeared as if he was on something. We got a 1/2 ass tour of grand central. During the tour a gentleman stopped and asked if he was our tour guide as if he wanted to say something but just stood there and then left. He was informative took great pictures but summit itself does not need a guide so he was not necessary for me I just went through the experience and went about my business. It was not worth my $135 and actually ruin my day as I had other things plan. I could not access my picture as they were all under the group as when I scanned my barcode that is what I was told. I believe I should have at least $90 returned to me. The summit experience was on another level by itself but the tour guide his lateness and then trying to make me feel stupid when I was there from 8:25am and only getting on the tour at 10am I felt as though I was stripped naked for all to see.
